Topic: Move file out of unknown subfolder(s) (Read 2109 times)

Hi there,I want to backup my firefox profiles and with xcopy I can copy all the files, but the problem is the map structure is copied too. Now I want that all files from the profilesxxx folders are moved into one folder. The problem is: the xxx in profilesxxx is a random string so I can't just say "move profilesxxx onefolder"

I have a similar problem, so I'm posting here, too.We are working on XP, so our Mozilla profiles are in C:\Documents...\...\Profiles\xxxxxxx.default\.We need to copy a certain file into that folder (for all users, on all machines), but I do not have a clue how to do that with DOS.

thanks for your input, but I think we are talking about different things (maybe my explanation was poor...).1. When Firefox is installed and started, the folder C:\Documents...\...\Profiles\xxxxxxx.default\ is created. This is the status of our machines which we cannot change...2. One certain File shall be copied in a subdirectory of the xxxxx.default folder (or: into the xxxx.default folder on every machine).3. I think the problem with copying inside DOS comes up only when I want to use a wildcard in the destination folder, not the source (and, especially, FOLDER).
